YOUR CHILD'S CHANCE In round numbers, what is your child's chance to become successfuL If uneducated, he has one chance out of 150,000; with a common school educa tion, 4 chances; with a high school education 87 chances; with a college education, 800 chances. WITH THE BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE in the home, every chance. It is not a luxury, it is an absolute necessity. It is an INVEST MENT in your child's future, which will pay dividends as long as he lives. In over 650, 000 homes today the children are being educated with THE BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE. Give your child his chance to compete with them. Answers Every Ques tion a Child Can Ask Why do we grow old? - Who made the first elec tric light? How did the days get their names? Why is a river always running? Where does the wind he gin? Why does the kettle sing? Where do thoughts come from? What makes coal burn? Why has a star five points? The Nation's Greatest Asset The children of today are the citizens of tomorrow. They are the nation's greatest asset. No labor so important, no duty so imperative, as that of making the children into 100 American citizens. We do not want bookworms, we want intelligent, well-informed, forceful men and women, who can do their own thinking. Only a small part of this education can be obtained in the schoolroom. Three-fourths of it must be acquired in the daily reading, entertain ments and occupations in the home. THE BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE is a new method of education in the home. Over 10,000 delightful educational pictures and brief intensely interesting articles tell the children everything they need to know in plain and simple language. It is the first work of reference which a child ever really enjoyed reading. It expands every faculty of the child's growing mind and takes care of the outdoor as well as the indoor life of the home. Curiosity The Great Teacher CURIOSITY is the beginning of all knowledge. Do you know any subject about which your child has not asked you a dozen questions ? Let him ask as many as he likes, and be sure to answer them correctly. That is the parent's most important and most easily neglected duty. If you discourage your child's curiosity you will injure his mind, and the bright boy or girl becomes stupid or indifferent. Through curiosity Columbus discovered America. THE BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE is the simplest and most natural method of helping the child to educate himself. IT ANSWERS EVERY QUESTION A CHILD CAN ASK IN PLAIN AND SIMPLE LANGUAGE. So captivating is this great original work to the mind of a child that he absorbs with little effort the profound truth and great facts of the world of knowledge while reading its delightful pages and looking at the thousands of striking educational pictures. You child is like no other child in the world. He has his own peculiar taste and need for both physical and mental food. Some kinds of food agree with him and some do not. THE BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE is the right kind of nour ishing food for the child's mind during the growing years. Give your child this remarkable, original work, and watch carefully which of the 16 great departments interests him most. Nature, Science, History, Biography, Astronomy, Physiology, Art, Literature, Poetry or Manual Training. It will prove THE KEY to his natural bent, and the kind of work or profession in which he will most easily succeed.
